It’s time for another week of Dancing With The Stars, as we enter Week 3 of season 35 with Yacht Rock Week. There are 13 contestants remaining in the competition.

Yacht Rock is a genre of soft rock from the mid-1970s and mid-1980s that blends R&B, jazz, soul, and funk, so expect to hear some mid-tempo bounce to the beats throughout the night.

Ahead of Tuesday night’s episode, all of the dance styles and song choices have been revealed, with everything from Luther Vandross to Fleetwood Mac coming our way, along with the classic “Africa” by Toto and a heavy dose of Hall & Oates.

What style and song will your favorite celebrity contestant be rocking out to on Tuesday night? The full song list and dance style for each couple’s performance for Yacht Rock Week can be seen below.
